Another protest in the city.

But the one thing that caught my eye is the number of Toyota Klugers in the police fleet lined up on the street. And then there's us having to wait months maybe years for a delivery lol.

Seems more idiots on the road today.

2 lane roundabout. I'm doing a right from the left lane (as the arrows indicated), almost collected a guy who did a left from the right lane.

Less than 5 minutes later, the driver of a parked car threw his door open, nearly hitting traffic.

2 nights ago I noticed some loud rumbling sounds in the kitchen. Was listening to music so thought it was a neighbour dragging heavy furniture.

Today it happened again. But I didn't wear headphones this time.

The culprit?

Our cat attacking the draught stop. She used all her strength to try to rip the thing off, resulting in the door, concrete wall, and the kitchen window 3 meters away to all rumble and rattle loudly.

Defeats the whole purpose of chatting and reply at your own pace type of support.

Wife: "why did you buy three 5pk of Ferrero Rocher instead of a 16pk?"

Me: "because a 5pk is $5, while the 16pk is $18"

Wife:

Yeah usually the pricing structure is the other way around lol.

I accidentally taught all three of our cats their names were "sit".

"sit". All three stop whatever they were doing and comes running to me, demanding for food.

We've gotten it from a few vendors over the months, like from Queen Vic market, Footscray, and most recently yesterday in Springvale Central.

My wife otherwise thinks they're all not fresh - it lacks the taste of when the young coconut is opened freshly chopped down from the tree. I thought it's so sweet it's almost artificial.

In my wife's home town home we have a rather large heavy knife. A few well placed hits is all it takes to get the water.

πŸ˜…

I'll see how long it takes her to open one from the mostly-original state next time we're in the kitchen.

A major difference between my wife and I:

  • I spent 10 minutes banging a wooden spoon on a standard kitchen knife trying to open a coconut. I give up after the wooden spoon disintegrates, the coconut still closed.

  • My wife comes into the kitchen and swings the same knife at the coconut a few times. Less than a 30 seconds later, we have access to coconut water.
